## Packages

* [djvulibre](https://ubuntu.com/security/cves?package=djvulibre) - DjVu image format library and tools

## Details

It was discovered that DjVuLibre could be forced to execute a division
by zero in certain instances. A remote attacker could possibly use
this issue to cause applications to stop responding or crash, resulting
in a denial of service. ([CVE-2021-46312](https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2021-46312))

It was discovered that DjVuLibre incorrectly handled certain memory
operations. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a
specially crafted DjVu file, a remote attacker could cause applications
to stop responding or crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly
execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, Ubuntu
18.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. ([CVE-2025-53367](https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2025-53367))

## Update instructions

In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
